Love this little one. Beautiful title! I have had experience with someone making comments that may be unsensitive or negative. I would be offended if someone were to say this is not ok, do this, change that! You can not change or bend someones creativity. You can inspire it. Love your poetic creativity with this little masterpiece!

work on the last line & take off the capital [T] line 1, think when you saw the beauty of this happening what else sensory happened? did a breeze brush your cheek? were there any sounds like Mom's calling kids to play..your line 3 is too intellectual, you need to draw the reader into the scene with something sensory...[title should be line one ---the grey sky]HUGS Light & Love

Kash, I really like this one. Nice cut on the second line. I love summer solstice time, which is one reason why I wrote MY Lady. Quick soupmail.
